Building digital infrastructure for the next era.
Writing human frameworks for the current one.
Navoch Mohanayak. I build things that compute, cool, fly, and occasionally make you laugh. Not always in that order.
Futurist
Two decades spotting inflection points early - most recently as VP at Frost & Sullivan. The professional habit of seeing what's coming before the market has agreed it's coming.
Frontiersman
Building where the map runs out - compute, energy, space, flight. Frontiers, not adjacencies. Deep-tech ventures that pick a fight with the current textbook.
Founder
Co-founder across five ventures turning stubborn questions into companies. From high-density data centres to wingless flight - questions wearing business plans.
Fosterer
Author of nine books and counting; mentor, essayist, collector of interesting questions. The human bit - because IQ without EQ is just a very fast argument.
Four frontiers. Five bets.
Nine out. Five on the way.
Where both worlds stop pretending to be separate.
The Economics of Things That Have Never Existed
There's a spreadsheet that gets built for every frontier venture, and it is always a work of fiction. It's called the TAM - Total Addressable Market - and for anything genuinely new, it is roughly as reliable as asking a fortune teller for a P&L. This doesn't stop anyone from building it. It stops almost no one from believing it.
Optionality Is an Asset. Indecision Is a Liability.
A sequel to "Decision Intelligence for Frontier Ventures."
For ventures, advisory, speaking, or a well-argued disagreement - this is the door.
